Thank you both :-) I've managed to climb on him 4 times this week and he's loving it. We're both very unfit and he's a senior so it's been mostly walk. I trotted 3/4 around the arena each way today but most was just going from free walk to med walk.

He's loving the new place and is turned out with a very nice herd of geldings every other day and seems to be making friends.

He's put on a visible amount of weight in one week. His ribs no longer feel like a xylophone when I groom him and there's some fat covering them. I don't think they'll be visible in a couple of weeks at the rate he's gaining.

He is loving the attention and I can see he feels pretty proud of himself when I tack him up :-)

I love him so much.
